Further perusal shows the original pair of wheels (Zeus hubs, Super Champion Arc en Ciel tubulars) was disassembled and rebuilt with the current Mavic Open 4CD rim pair (re-using the original hubs) in June of 1995. Labor was $80, rims were $80 for the pair, Continental Super Sport tires (erroneously noted as 25c) were $16.99 each and the 72 spokes cost a total of $21.60.

The freewheel, btw, is an Ultra 6 Winner, with a 24t bailout ($22.47). It's a freewheel I've not tried before since I tend to stick with Regina's chain and freewheel offerings. The drivetrain is very quiet and positive in action on the stand.
